President Leo Calagaz says his store alarm went off Sunday night, but by the time he got there the burglar was long gone with almost $20,000 worth of camera equipment.
“I’m not a mean-spirited person but the fact is when somebody breaks the law they need to be held accountable,” Calagaz said.In the surveillance video, you see the thief fails to get through the front door so he looks for another way in. “We had somebody that actually came in on Tuesday, not the gentleman that broke in, but another party a male and a female and they were actually trying to sell us back one of the cameras that were stolen from us,” Calagaz explained.The two walk in with the alleged stolen camera Tuesday afternoon and try to return it.They were both escorted out in handcuffs.
“We have to have a brand new front door put in. Those are expensive cases so around twenty grand of damages I would say,” Store Manager Maggie Roffler said.Roffler says the thief used a crowbar to break in and go on his own personal shopping spree.
